Arabella| H.S.
What saved her, drowned him. Arabella is a successful model and actress with co-ownership of her company, Dior, with her best friend. She is also something far more deadly than just a little girl. One night, just one night is all it took to change her life and have it come falling apart. Whereas Harry is far from put together. He's lost it all and hidden underneath jewels, money and lies are secrets bigger than the both of them, waiting to be set free. To fight or to fall? That is indeed the question. *** "Keep a gun on you at all times." I grip her shoulders so tight I think they'll break while worry emanates from her face. "Just try not to die, Sir." She plants a kiss on my forehead. "No promises, remember?" *** "I defy you, stars." - William Shakespeare My first dark Harry fanfic also...
